Instructions

(1) On the Non-Stick Craft Sheet, using the Alcohol Ink Applicator, place Stream, Wild Plum and Lettuce Adirondack Alcohol inks on the felt. Add a drop or two of Blending Solution.

(2) Stamp the color onto the Memory Glass. Let dry. (Note: only one piece of inked glass is needed for this project – however, there will be enough ink on the felt to do a few pieces of glass for other projects.)

(3) On a scrap piece of white cardstock, stamp phrase in Archival Jet Black ink. Let dry. Cut to fit Memory Glass.

(4) Sandwich the stamped phrase between the inked glass and another piece of Memory Glass.

(5) Using the Memory Foil Tape, begin pressing the tape evenly to the Memory Glass to wrap around the edges and hold the “sandwich” together. Begin in one corner and slowly work your way around the piece of glass making sure you keep the tape straight and even all the way around. Cut the tape with scissors.

(6) Burnish the tape evenly against the glass on all sides with the Paper Creaser, taking extra care to get corners flattened.

(7) Wrap Memory Glass with wire and charm. Attach pinback. Set aside.

(8) Stamp white card with hearts in Adirondack Stream and Wild Plum ink. Edge card with Stream ink using Cut N Dry foam for a smooth application.

(9) On scrap piece of teal cardstock, stamp hearts with Perfect Medium™. Let dry. Tear around edges of cardstock. Edge with Stream ink using Cut N Dry foam.

(10) Attach pin to teal cardstock with hook and loop tape. Attach teal cardstock to white card with glue stick.
